Galah Cockatoo Owners! What has been your experience owning these clowns?

That bird is stressed. I am from Aust. and have galah's. When there beaks are open and they are breathing like that they are stressed.

Not a big deal but how we pronounce them in Australia is like galaaaah. With a big emphasis on the final a. Not a big deal just putting it out there :)

i live near a large animal sanctuary in Victoria, Australia. A lot of the birds in there are varieties of cockatoos including galahs. A lot of the birds outlived their owners who did not have plans in place for the bird once they died. It is important to remember when buying these birds that you have a next of kin included in your will in order for your bird to to not end up in a position of distressing your bird too much.

Fellow Galah owner here. I would say this is spot on. My nugget is very demanding and it took her awhile to warm up. She wants constant attention and stimulation. These birds will keep you on your tippy toes. Though if you are willing to put in the time, great companion. Any pet should be part of your family. The Galah assumes she is 😅

Australian here, love your videos. First time I’ve heard it pronounced guh-luh. Maybe it’s pronounced differently elsewhere 😂. But yeah usually pronounced ga-la, really emphasising the a’s. Also, there’s a bunch of these guys who just live around my area, they’re super cute when they fly down to drink from my dams. Absolutely adorable birds.

I have one and we just love her ❤️ She only nips when she is scared 😱. She doesn't break the skin. She just loves everyone in the family even people she has never seen she will fly right over lol.lol

Good, balanced review of the pluses and minuses

I'm really concerned about the panting of this bird, yes they do pant, but not for an extended time. I know this video was made over a year ago, hope this lil one is ok

African greys have got to be next

Thanks for covering all the parrots 🦜 super relaxing videos. Keep up the good work my man 😬😬

It's pronounced Ga-LAH with emphasis on the second syllable. I'm lucky to live in an area of South Australia where these fellas are everywhere and are crazy birds in a good way. They are often seen hanging upside down during a rainshower, which allows for the cleaning of their feathers. I once knew a lady who was given a Galah chick in 1925 when she was 5 years old. She lived to be 85, and the bird outlived her for another 4 years...

Great video, man. My Galah Sammi and I enjoyed it. She disagreed with some details. Ironically, they were the points that I agreed with most strongly . 🐔🤓

I have a hand-raised "Kuhli Galah" which is about 2-3 inches smaller than an "Eastern Galah" I bought 4 years ago for $450 there is a shit load of them in Australia.....2-4 hours a day out of his cage is all he wants before he wants to go back in they love their alone time as well.

Galahs are definitely the cutest birds

Just love your reviews. Thank you!

I love your review series - both fascinating and educational. Can you please review Senegal parrots at some point?

Galahs are cockatiels are to the MAX! Oh man I want one so bad! They also related to cockatiels!

Great video. Really informative and full of great unsight into these birds 😄 however, your pronunciation of the name galah is maddening haha

Please please do Peach Faced Lovebird!

What an amazing channel!! Congrats !

Jamieleigh from Birdtricks says exacteley the opposite in her video: Why Cockatoos Make TERRIBLE Pets (Watch Mine Attack ME!). So, I don't know what is true now...

Take a look at the Twenty Eight parrot native to Western Australia, awesome bird. Not really a talker, but will give kisses and hang with you just about all day long, so long as you hand raise them from a young age. They are nice looking parrots and great companions. My rescue boy used to sit on my shoulder while I rode along on the tractor and planted new trees, he loved it, until at three years old he flew off with a female who kept visiting him. All my medium sized parrots used to go in the car with me and perch on the head piece of my drivers' seat, they used to go to the pet cafe when it was open and sit on my shoulder often when I went out. They now inhabit a huge flight aviary in my backyard. They take turns visiting me inside and having days with Mum. 😄

Galahs here in Australia hang out in flocks of hundreds to thousands. I own 4, some rescue of which I've owned for nearly ten years, one of which was raised from 6 weeks old . They are highly affectionate and comical creatures, however a word of advice on pronunciation, I hear you saying it in the way you would pronounce a gala (festival), however it's pronounced evenly Gaalaah as in ga ga ga, la la la, G a l a h. Beautiful young Galah there. Cheers.

Bravo very well explained🙌😀thank you very much for this🙏

Hi! Is it possible that you can review pigeons? They are really cute and cuddly and probably good for beginners.

ive just sub now and thank you for filling my information about Galah cocktoos i am buying one on the 16th of this month it will be my second cocktoo as i own a solomon cocktoo and a african grey

This video is very interesting and informative! Thank you so much. Would you provide a link to the video you mentioned about the mix of a Galah and cockatiel. Thanks again.

He looks like he is struggling with hot weather

Please do a video on Quakers! I have two, they’re great!

We have been doing our research. Once we have finished buying our house we are going to be hopefully getting one of these as we want a long lived parrot, that is on the larger side but that is also super friendly and a bit of an asshole.

You should do the purple crown Lorrikeet! have one looks a rainbow hummingbird about the size of your thumb 🤩

Also I really enjoy your content.

You should do a review of the budgie

I was wondering which Omar's Exotic Birds you borrow the birds from? I would love to visit there soon since I also live in southern California.

OOPS... this baby is really stressing so be good

$3000+ USD for a galah, when i can go and catch them for free in my backyard in Australia, in my town we have large flocks of galahs, little corella's, sulphur crested cockatoos since theres lots of cereal crops and grain depots, we also get rosella's, king, princess and superb parrots and cockatiels in smaller numbers

Watch Vinny from Marlene Mc'cohen on KZfaq. A great example of an intelligent aggressive Galah.

Can you review male Eclectus next

Well, this was certainly informative. It's a shame that a Galah Cockatoo will generally outlive their original owners with their long lifespan, but they're just so beautiful and they seem like such fun creatures! I've actually been thinking about getting a bird myself, leaning towards a Sun Conure, but please, tell me, what bird species would you recommend for a beginner?

Would be nice to have a review for the brown headed parrot

Hi Coro, I just made a deposit on an umbrella cockatoo. I researched this for years, as this is my dream pet. I do live in an apartment, but the building is family owned so I’m not worried about a landlord. However, can you give me your opinion on if the bird will disrupt my pack ? ( 2 dogs, 3 cats, a tortoise and turtle ) Thus is my dream and I’m turning 35 in two weeks. I felt it was now or never, I don’t wanna be in my 40s raising a bird. She will be a few months old when I pick her up in October. Please give me all your advice and opinion ! Thank you xx

"Australian Galah, holding grudges" Sounds like a bio for my ex wife

Please can you review the major Mitchell cockatoo?

I'd love for you to do a review on the Little Corella!

Love how you say Galah we aussie say it different

Another aussie here, i had a galah since i was a Child, it would nibble on my ear for hours while I read comics on the bed. Later got one so smart, it would watch how we locked the cage, then we would find it sitting on the cage when we got home. Plenty of wild ones everywhere here in Brisbane.

Heaps of these guys im my area. As well as the corella and the cockatoo. Around my work I get dive bombed by them when you get in there space lol. They are loud but you are right when you say they are clowns. And yes talking they really talk. It is funny to start but gets so annoying after a while

What's with all the panting? Is your house really hot? Is the Galah stressed out? Bit of both? These birds aren't toys, please treat them with respect.

Our galah is now 50 years and going strong. He loves eating anything you are eating - his favourite snack is a chicken bone from a roast. Everything goes into the water dish to soften before he eats it - including the metal springs on wooden clothes pegs. His bites go to the bone when he's unhappy. Your bird there looks hot or stressed with all that panting.

"Gulla" 😂

Mine is the most cuddled parrot one can have. He sleeps in my hand. Well not in the begining but day after day. But I guess I was Lucky.

How many birds are you planning on getting Also can you do a review on love birds

Pls can you review the jardine parrot I’m interested in getting one

Can you make one on Quaker parrots ??

Which is the best parrot for me I like quite and funny parrot but not very expensive, and you can buy it from any pet market? Which one is the best?

Can you review sun conures ?

Excellent review, just what I needed. From what I understand, unfortunately, the galah is not the bird for me. I also own a cat, and my cat used to live on the street before we rescued him, which probably meant he fed on mice and birds to survive.

bro , u should live here in Australia, I just bought a pair for $500 AUD. Thanks for you video.

So your saying...i have to take care a 70 year old teenager that have wings?

Can you please review Malabar Parakeets, lanyards parakeet and long tailed parakeet. Thanks

in australia galahs are only $450-$2000

My galah always poops on me if I keep it on my shoulder it is a nightmare! 🤣

How different do you find galahs personalities when compared to the sulfur crested cockatoos

I have alot of galahs in my neighbourhood of intercity Sydney Australia

I always laugh when Americans call Galah's a cockatoo when you consider they aren't even in the same family of birds.

Do quaker parrots!!

Galaaaaaaaagh

That poor bird you did not stop moving your hand arround which would make it so nervous. Also pronunciation is gulaaaa

Indian ringtail review soon pls

when he was talking about augments with them, he defiantly been watching Marlene Mc'chohen. vinny... 😂

If they weren’t dusty, I’d have a house full

You pronounce the word as Ga-lah, they are gorgeous birds.

Does anyone know what happened to Coro???

Is he good

here in australia i get 1 for 400 fully tamed

Why is he breathing like that? :)

No, the Corella is, or bare eyed cockatoo, I have the greatest bird u could get!

5:02 thats actually true

can you make a video on all your birds??

Bird seems exhausted. Seems too thirsty.. give her water instead of making videos

You are a high energy guy. The info is great Coro! Only wonder why you seem to find it necessary to shout. (respectfully fyi, it doesn't really help to turn the volume down, as still sounds like you think we can't hear you unless you shout

This bird looks stressed he is panting

Did lots of research apart from how to pronounce "Galah" properly. galarrrrrrrrr. LOL

What’s behind the bird shortage going on right now?

Im allergic to dust so cockatoos aren’t for me

That's right .. is Galaah not Gals .. ther're very bright (can con & outhink a dog .. flying primates really ) .. this one here seems t😮o be beak breathing .. not agood sign of health.

in aus we pronouce it (gul ahhhh)

What? Galahs are expensive???!!!! 100$ u could get a pair of them in Melbourne or just go and catch in the bush for free😂

oh and is 3 months of research enough?

FFS it is not "Gulluh" it is a Galah.

I think that galahs live up to 80

He’s not breathing right.. 🥺

Couple of things mate, not sure what your pet store told you, but I'm not sure that bird is 100% galah... i think it's a cross with a sulphur. If the store said they lived from 50 t 70 years, that makes sense. Sulphur crested cockatoos live from 50 to 100 years (!), and galahs are a little less than that. Also. I'm very grateful you call it a galah, more often, Americans call them rose breasted cockatoos- something they are never called over here, but your pronunciation needs some work. The way you said it is the way an Aussie would say "gala". We don't emphasise the "a" in the beginning of the word. It's not a perfect analogy, but if you pronounced it a if it rhymed with "blah" possibly even a shortened "yada"... Finally, DEFINITELY let kids interact with these things. BUT they need to be supervised and taught, just like learning any other skill. Leaving a kid alone with any animal is a recipe for disaster. One last thing.... learn to build! All the stuff i have for my birds is home made. A perch is a stick! The seeds with wood chips is a good idea.

It looks like that poor bird is having breathing problems. Is it OK?

Algorithm gang

Any reason why your parrot panting so hard?

I would say that parrots tend to not appreciate the types of gestures you're making, especially so close to their faces. Aside from that, as others have said the pronunciation is guh-laa. This is elementary-level information that you've clearly just grabbed from Wikipedia and/or overviews which are easily Googled. Very low effort. Can I ask why the bird was panting this entire video? It seems genuinely uncomfortable.

Y he is doing that in 2:32

That bird is almost certainly sick. It shouldn’t be breathing through its mouth.
